New details in the sunlight

This morning greeted me with more references as this issue caught on. Retweets. The Next Web. Gizmodo. All the scraper sites that pull from them. (I haven't done a thorough search.)

Embarrassing for Samsung, if true. I'll leave judgment to you. But if it's true, it's also a violation of copyright and the Creative Commons license. Not that it's any skin off of my nose. But it's never good for image when marketing gets caught hawking apparent bulloney. (I can't help but wonder why a marketing department would not use screenshots from its own device? Would the Samsung version of the app really so unappealing?)

"The world has infinite knowledge," writer Jascha Kessler would tell his students, meaning that you really need to write what you know and research what you don't know, because the readers will see your bullshit. Of course, that's all the more true now in the web world, where search, social links, and literally a world full of readers are archiving, contextualizing, tagging, bookmarking, and remembering what you put out there. I'm not sure how Gruber found the image match. One of the image search engines, possibly?
